Since you ask:
Obviously, anyone working in oil production, or who owns or operates gas stations, or who otherwise has a vested financial stake in having gas prices rise, has a strong reason to want to see gas prices indeed rise. That makes their opinion heavily biased.
That would mean that he was indeed arguing for higher prices because it would increase his own profits.
That also means that the credibilty of that person's arguments would be zero.
